   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  02-3562
                          and No:  03-2023
                          and No:  02-4081
   District of Minnesota   
   Civil case - Condemnation. District court did not err in finding it 
   lacked subject matter jurisdiction over the plaintiffs' takings claims 
   against the U.S., as the U.S. Court of Federal Claims has exclusive 
   subject matter jurisdiction over takings claims against the U.S. that 
   exceed $10,000; FOIA claim was either barred by the statute of 
   limitations or was moot; evidence was insufficient to establish that 
   defendants engaged in a conspiracy to deny plaintiffs' rights; state law 
   claims were either barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine or were unripe 
   for adjudication in federal court; no error in dismissing pendent state law 
   claims.
